Fixed Star Haedus II Astrology
Hoedus II has the nature of Mars and Mercury (high enterprise, combative, destructive.) [1]
Constellation Auriga
The constellation is said to give self-confidence, interest in social and educational problems, and happiness, but the danger of great vicissitudes. The native is fond of country life and may be a teacher or have the upbringing of young people. [1]
Auriga is one of the most fortunate constellations in the sky, but may still portend earthquakes if situated unfortunately as regards a solar eclipse. [2]
4th Arabic Manzil – Al-Dabaran
Causes the destruction and hindrances of buildings, fountains, wells, gold mines, the flight of creeping things, and begets discord.
With Moon: Pursue business, travel, marry and take medicine.
19th Chinese Xiù – 畢 (Bì) Net
The Net includes Aldebaran and the Hyades cluster. Both the Hyades and the Pleiades were regarded as the mesh of a hunting net. Hunting forays in the old days of China were used as much for military exercises and training as they were to rid the land of vermin or to gather food. Hence, this mansion governs hunting, wealth (as a result of a good hunt), outlaws, deserters and traitors, as well as trouble at the frontiers (border disputes and the like).
It is good for construction, funerals, and weddings. Burials on this day confer honor to the deceased. Building brings fortune. Children born of a marriage performed on this day will live to 100 years.
Fixed Star Haedus I Conjunctions
Ascendant conjunct Haedus II: Rash, very obstinate, ruined by headstrong and precipitate conduct. [1]
When rising, Haedus I and its companion Haedus II indicate a native who may be petulant and lascivious, one who is said to be involved in depraved and vicious desires. If other factors in the chart confirm these stars, the native’s whole appearance to others may be that of a lie, of a person who promises one thing but hides another thing in his heart. [2]

Descendant conjunct Haedus II: Ancient astrologers asserted these two stars presaged cowards in battle and even suicide or other early death when setting (especially when the Descendant is also in square or opposition aspect to Saturn). When Mars is conjunct the Descendant as either Haedus I or Haedus II is setting, the indication is for religious fanaticism and ruin as a result of the resultant excesses. [2]
